When I was much younger, I definitely would give in to other’s wants more easily than I do now and, looking back, I’m aware it was an effort to appease them more than making myself happy. They didn’t do anything wrong and neither did I, but if I could go back in time and say “No” instead, I would.

Relationships live in a lot of grey areas. That’s great that you’re relationships have been on equal footing in this regard :)
